Chapter 875: Chapter 578: The Imminent Arrival (Part 2)

At this moment, the others hadn’t noticed the sarcasm and thoughts in Mu Lin’s mind; whether it was them or Ebel, they were all deep in thought because of what Mu Lin had said.

Ebel was already thirteen years old, and although somewhat withdrawn, living in his own world, he still had his own way of thinking. He wasn’t a fool, he just didn’t want to interact with the people around him.

And Mu Lin’s words, from the beginning, were a form of guidance for him.

As long as he began to unravel his knots little by little, then it was likely he would return to his former self, the way a thirteen-year-old boy should be.

Looking at Mu Lin, Ebel slowly nodded his head, apparently understanding what Mu Lin was trying to convey.

Jing Youlan said that his sister-in-law truly lived up to her reputation; there was nothing she couldn’t accomplish.

"Ebel, do you want, to stand up?" After a brief pause, a short while later, Mu Lin’s cool voice once again resonated in everyone’s ears, and Ebel instinctively looked up at Mu Lin, the meaning in his eyes clear.

Mu Lin chuckled, "Since I’m asking this, it means that I have the ability to help you stand up. You just need to tell me, do you want to stand up?" In fact, Mu Lin was also trying to get him used to speaking and expressing his own thoughts.

"I do." He nodded without hesitation, and although it was just one word, his speech was much clearer than at the start.

"Then, do you trust me?" Mu Lin asked again.

Still nodding without hesitation, "I trust." He believed, from the very first moment he saw Mu Lin, Ebel knew that he really liked her, very much, and the aura she exuded.

In fact, though Ebel couldn’t speak, he had heard many mentions of Mu Lin along the way. They all said that Mu Lin’s medical skill was very high; it’s just that she had a bit of a temper.

But he felt that Mu Lin was gentler than anyone else he had ever met, especially when he looked into her eyes, his heart felt very calm.

There was no doubt, Ebel liked Mu Lin.

Lifting his hand, he gently touched his silky black hair. Mu Lin smiled faintly, "Thank you for trusting me, however." She paused slightly, "I can’t treat you right now," her eyes were filled with a bit of apology.

"Why?" However, the one who spoke this time was the person behind Ebel. He was called Gena, an officer, and had always been Ebel’s protector. His gaze at Mu Lin was filled with excitement.

Mu Lin looked up at him, "Do you think I have the emotional capacity to save people in my current condition?" Her icy gaze held none of the gentleness she had when speaking with Ebel.

For Mu Lin at this time, her kindness was reserved for children only.

For some reason, hearing Mu Lin’s words, a blush crossed the other party’s fair face; he had been a bit impatient. Although it was something arranged by the higher-ups, he hadn’t forgotten about the Divine Doctor Mu’s capricious temperament.

Under no circumstances could she be offended lightly.

Looking at him, her phoenix eyes were cool, her voice slightly chilly.

"Chinese Medicine doesn’t rely on instruments, even if I’m willing, my current state leaves me emotionally unfit to treat Ebel. Even if I were to treat him now, with my current physical condition, it’s not possible. If forced, it could result in one death and two losses, without guarantee of success. I think, no one would be able to take that responsibility, especially not you." This was Mu Lin’s explanation, leaving the other party with nothing to say or refute.

Hearing Mu Lin’s words, old Mr. Jing, who wasn’t planning to interject, spoke, "In that case, we may have to wait until our Linlin has given birth and recovered before she can treat your Little Young Master."

Considering his little grandchild and the dangers that Mu Lin had just described, the old master was naturally anxious.

Although it was a demand from the higher-ups, he didn’t care; everything else could be set aside, no one was more important than Mu Lin.

The main thing was, their issue could wait, a little delay wouldn’t matter; having carried it since birth, what were a few more months after so many years?

"I understand." Nodding at the old master and Mu Lin, Gena said, "We will wait until Divine Doctor Mu has recovered before we visit again." But there was one thing he still wanted to confirm once more, "Divine Doctor Mu, can you truly cure our Young Master’s leg? Completely cure it?" He needed the most definitive answer, one that had to come directly from Mu Lin.
